Laura Biagiotti is one of Italy’s greatest fashion designers. Since 1980 she has lived and worked in the Roman countryside, in the 11th century Marco Simone Castle that was lovingly restored to its ancient splendor after years of patient renovation, together with her husband Gianni Cigna, who passed away prematurely in August 1996. Laura Biagiotti’s interest in fashion began in the Sixties when she followed in the footsteps of her mother Delia Soldaini Biagiotti, the founder of a fashion atelier. Laura Biagiotti is famous around the globe for her extraordinary fashions: the New York Times dubbed her the “Queen of Cashmere” due to her love for this precious yarn that she has used since her first collection with a refined, unusual approach, evolving into a dimension of style unheard of at the time.

The Cause

For over 15 years OBM ONLUS has been committed to offering aid to women, children and families who come to the Vittore Buzzi Children's Hospital in Milan, helping to make their experience gentler as they are treated, offering them a welcoming environment and giving them access to healthcare excellence and technological innovation. OBM ONLUS operates daily in 3 specific areas to provide optimal solutions for children, babies and their parents, so that they can receive the best care to grow up healthy and happy:

1) giving the hospital a human touch by creating colorful play areas for children, offering a warm welcome to aid treatment and reduce the stress of hospital stays;

2) providing assistance to families by offering psychological support and hospitality to make their experience less traumatic;

3) aiding technological development within the hospital by purchasing medical and diagnostic equipment.

The hospital is still in the middle of the COVID emergency. There have been better times but now we have a lot of sick children. We have decided to strengthen the neonatology area, so that every newborn can be welcomed in the safest way possible. COVID has seen an increase in premature births and so the hospital needs more special cots to help the newborns grow strong. Our goal is to donate an Infant Warmer to the Buzzi Neonatology department, a station complete with all the necessary equipment to be used in the dedicated COVID area or moved to the delivery room.
